Studio Update
Category: Music
The recording process is coming along well. The album is shaping up so: 7 songs with an average time of about 7.5 minutes per song. The album will be approximitely 55 minutes long in total. One of the tracks is the re-recording of March of the Norsemen (Now The Storming of the Sea) which was originally recorded in July 2005, re-recorded in July 2006, was suppose to be included on the self-titled release and was taken away because it was so drastically different from the rest of the tracks and didn't fit the concept. But it fits seemingly with this album's concept and ideology.
Guitar recordings are almost complete for all tracks and drumming has been completely tracked for two tracks. This means two of the seven tracks are in almost complete form and once lyrics are written and vocals are recorded a three song demo will be assembled and available for free as a CD-R (asking me with a supplied address will get you a copy of the demo).
It has also come to my attention that the opening track Öndvegssûlur is split into three (almost) drastically different parts while clocking in at almost 10 minutes long. Splitting them into their own songs has almost become not a choice but a neccessity.
